ruk ja sathi, ruk ja sathi
o o o o
ruk ja sathi chala hai akela kaha
milegi na manzil koi yu akele
ruk ja sathi
ho o o ruk ja sathi

taar se taar mile nahi jab tak
kya nikale jhankaar
taar se taar mile nahi jab tak
kya nikale jhankaar
tanha tanha jiya na jaye
kahte hai jisko pyar
ruk ja sathi chala hai akela kaha
milegi na manzil koi yu akele
ruk ja sathi
ho o o ruk ja sathi

lahar mile dhara ban jaye
dhara mile to sangam
lahar mile dhara ban jaye
dhara mile to sangam
tu or mai ka farak rahe na
aa mil jaye hum
ruk ja sathi chala hai akela kaha
milegi na manzil koi yu akele
ruk ja sathi
ho o o ruk ja sathi

saher ke baad sham aati hai
sham saher ke baad
saher ke baad sham aati hai
sham saher ke baad
shamo saher har ek pehar
aati hai mujhe teri yaad
ruk ja sathi chala hai akela kaha
milegi na manzil koi yu akele
ruk ja sathi
o o o o ruk ja sathi

Halt, companion, halt, I say.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Halt, companion, where do you wander alone?
No destination awaits, thus solitary.
Halt, companion.
Ho, oh, oh, halt, companion.

Unless strings entwine,
What music can arise?
Unless strings entwine,
What melody will rise?
Loneliness is no life to embrace,
They call it love, that space.
Halt, companion, where do you wander alone?
No destination awaits, thus solitary.
Halt, companion.
Ho, oh, oh, halt, companion.

When waves embrace the river's flow,
A confluence then, they know.
When waves embrace the river's flow,
A confluence does grow.
No separation between you and I,
Let us unite, beneath the sky.
Halt, companion, where do you wander alone?
No destination awaits, thus solitary.
Halt, companion.
Ho, oh, oh, halt, companion.

After dawn, the evening descends,
Evening follows dawn's trends.
After dawn, the evening descends,
Evening follows dawn's trends.
Each hour, each night and day,
Your memory lights my way.
Halt, companion, where do you wander alone?
No destination awaits, thus solitary.
Halt, companion.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, halt, companion.
